• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first of all, on behalf of the Ministry, I would like to wish the retired President quick recovery, because this Question concerns him. Also, I would like to wish all those who were involved in that accident quick recovery, so that they could rejoin their families as soon as possible.

• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I made it very clear in part "a" of my reply that all the retirement benefits for His Excellency the retired President are already in payment to him. I do not know what brief Mr. Salat has; that the retired President has complained of not having been given those benefits. He is entitled to two saloon cars and two four-wheel-drive vehicles as per the Act and they can only be replaced at the end of three years from the time he was given. view
• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think I made it clear when I first answered the Question, that payment has already been made to His Excellency the retired President for his entitlement. We 2590 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES August 3, 2006 are within the Act. view
• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am very surprised by Mr. Sungu because he participated in the debate to decide which kind of vehicles a retired President can be given. Unless he is telling me that he was not here when this House passed that, two new cars--- view
• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the law is very clear. Unless the hon. Member is ignorant, the law that was passed in this House talks of two new cars, up to 3,000 cc, replaced every three years. This law came into effect in January, 2004. Since then, three years will actually elapse at the end of this year. view
• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I did ask what brief Mr. Salat has because it is not correct. I have a letter from the Private Secretary to His Excellency the retired President which states that the only thing that had not happened as at 20th June, was an outstanding part of his pension. The hon. Member is speaking about matters that he is not aware of. view
• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the hon. Member is a retired Army General and knows that out of security reasons--- view
• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: You are an honourable retired General as far as I am concerned! view
• 3 Aug 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in his designation he normally indicates "Retired General". We are talking about people who have retired here. I confirmed to this House that everything that the retired President was entitled to was delivered, other than some pending payment that the Private Secretary raised on 20th June, this year which is being sorted out. So, the vehicles have been delivered. We cannot provide the number plates for security reasons because they are GK vehicles. view
